NAME

       argv0 - run a program with a specific 0th argument

SYNOPSIS

       argv0 realname zero [ arg ...  ]


DESCRIPTION

       argv0 runs the program stored as realname on disk, with the given
       arguments.  It sets the 0th argument of the program to zero.

       For example,

            argv0 /bin/csh -bin/csh

       runs /bin/csh with a 0th argument of -bin/csh.  csh will think it is a
       login shell and behave accordingly.

       argv0 can be used to run some inetd wrappers under tcpserver.
